The fundamental condition of man is sleep; man is asleep, his consciousness is hypnotized, confused; he does not know who he is, he does not know why he acts, he is a kind of machine, an automaton, to which everything "happens"; he has no control over his thoughts, his emotions, his imagination, his attention; he believes he loves, desires, hates, wants, but never knows the true motivations of these impulses that appear and disappear like meteors; he says "I am," I do "," I want ", believing that I really have a unitary ego, while it is fragmented in a multitude of centers that dominate it from time to time; he deludes himself that he is aware of himself, but he cannot wake up from himself, he can only dream of waking up; she thinks she can govern her own life, but she is a puppet directed by forces that she ignores; he spends his entire existence in sleep and dies in sleep; he spends all his time in a subjective world he cannot escape; it is unable to distinguish the real from the imaginary; he wastes his energies to chase unnecessary things; and only sometimes does he realize that he is not satisfied, that life eludes him, that he is wasting the opportunity that has been offered to him.
